Yes, people called it "Whip City" because of the antennae on the cars. In the winter I would go to the Sparks building. Some great memories. Thank you!

Third alarm for a fire in a large apartment building, fire on the fifth floor @ 55 Village Way, off Brookline Avenue. Box 52 FB states rescues were made.

Chicago uses these as well. Saw video from a fire where they put it in front of the building and it swept back and forth as you stated. Every now and then someone would come by and check it out.

Nice video. Seeing as how it was a training drill it makes it easier to observe the activity. Appreciate the commentary as well. Good job!

From the Box 52 FB page. A third alarm was transmitted for a fire @ St Elizabeth's hospital in Brighton, a/k/a Boston Medical Center/Brighton. Fire was in the electrical room requiring the evacuation of 24+ patients.

Appreciate the quality of your work. Never saw the original at work so looking forward to your presentation on this.

Boston has a 10 alarm running card.

not a limit but has there been more in use at 1 incident.

I know FDNY pioneered TL ops is 8 working a fire the most at one incident?

Brockton MA has a fourth alarm @ 65 Westgate Drive in an industrial area. Box trucks and trailers extending to a large area of brush.

Appreciate the shots of the Sattellite @work.

NBC showed a video where the suspect starts the fire in a stack of paper products stating all they had to do was pay a decent wage. Wouldn't a place full of paper goods have a sprinkler system? Or am I missing something somewhere?

Maywood has a third alarm for a fire in a large industrial building @ 1317 First Avenue.
